Composition
Because speed was of the essence and because the available British tanks needed more time for replenishment, Combe Force was to consist of formations which utlilized wheeled vehicles. The composition of Combe Force was as follows:
- 11th Hussars
- 2nd Rifle Brigade - From the 7th Support Group
- C Battery 4th Royal Horse Artillery (RHA) with 25-pounder guns - From the 7th Support Group
- 106th (Lancashire Hussars) Regiment RHA with nine 37mm Bofors anti-tank guns portee mounted on trucks

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Pushkin’s composition is first of all and above all a phenomenon of style, and it is from this flowered rim that I have surveyed its seep of Arcadian country, the serpentine gleam of its imported brooks, the miniature blizzards imprisoned in round crystal, and the many-hued levels of literary parody blending in the melting distance.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
